Please make a few versions of the Model Seven in 6.5 Creedmore. I see you can get them in .260, which is cool, but the 6.5 Creedmore (which does the same thing) is actually getting market traction where the .260 is pretty much a commercial flop. IE – You clowns woudn’t even chamber your own R-25 Rifle in it! Come on! Well, the 6.5 is the commercial winner.
CDL and BDL versions would be great, and they need to be done. But also a few more slightly different.
An SPS Varmint style stocked 16″ threaded Heavy Barrel for one.
A version of the Predator without camo, and with ATACS or Mulitcam.
A Synthetic Scout configuration with iron sights.
Offer these same variants in .308 as well. Thank you.
I really like the little Model Sevens. They just may be the sweetest bolt action rifles on the planet. The problem that they have is that Remington really doesn’t know how to market them and most Gunners don’t even know what they are or consider them to be guns for Chicks and Kids. This is unfortunate as the gun community is seriously overlooking what is potentially the best option for those looking a compact lightweight rifle.
I might be Geeking out a bit on the 6.5 Creedmore, but i’m thinking it just might be the best cartridge out there for serious use (Killing Things) in a Short Action. And the Model Seven would be the ideal fit for it.
If they made a Scout version I wish they make it a ten round removable magazine.
@toadold hell yeah. I’d buy one in a hot minute. Why can’t people see that folks a lot of folk like higher cap mags on everything?
For short and fast in S. Texas, I find the Savage 99 in .243 to be lovely.
or a CZ527,now that the 1903 mannlicher carbine in 6.5×54 has been out of production for most of a hundred years.
The problem with the CZ 527’s – I’ve I’ve owned two of them now – is the Bolt Handles interfering with most scopes. You have to use scopes with very small occular bells or else the bolt handle will hit it.
That and the backwards safety, and the magazine that sticks out where you want to hold it for carrying.
SOMEONE could make a 6.5 carbine for us, and do it right, surely!
The Model Seven in 7-08 is sweet, and I thought they chambered it in .260 Remington as well. Why the 6.5 Creedmoor over these 2 choices.
